Grand Rapids Public Library

The Grand Rapids Public Library (GRPL) is the public library system of Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States. Founded in 1871, the system consists of a Main Library in downtown Grand Rapids and seven branch libraries throughout the city. GRPL is governed by a publicly elected Board of Library Commissioners. History The Grand Rapids Public Library was founded in 1871 through a partnership between the Grand Rapids Board of Education, the Ladies Literary Association, and the YMCA. In 1904, the Main Library moved into the Ryerson Building, a gift from Grand Rapids native and Chicago philanthropist Martin A. Ryerson, who assumed funding of the project after Andrew Carnegie withdrew his pledge. The first branch library, the West Side Branch, opened in 1908. A major addition to the Main Library was dedicated in 1969, more than doubling its size. In 1997, voters approved a millage to fund improvements to the city's libraries, with a large portion directed toward renovating the Main Library. Renovation began in 2001, integrating the original 1904 Ryerson Building with its 1960s addition, which was renamed the Keeler wing in honor of a $1.2 million gift from Mike and Mary Ann Keeler. The renovation was completed in 2003. In 2021, GRPL celebrated its 150th anniversary. Foundation The Grand Rapids Public Library Foundation (GRPLF) is an independent 501(c)(3) charitable organization that provides fundraising and advocacy support for GRPL, administering funds for endowment, capital, and special projects. The Foundation provided funding for the DigiBridge Initiative, a partnership with Grand Rapids Public Schools aimed at improving access to digital library resources for 17,000 students, which earned GRPL the 2015 Public Library Association Upstart Library Innovation Award.

The turntable is rusted shut and currently inoperable. Originally it was built as a double track bridge, but one set of tracks has been removed.

Agree em 1928 e originalmente serviu como um prédio para vários propósitos, sendo uma loja de varejo no térreo e uma enorme pista de dança no andar superior. Durante este período o Grande ficou famoso pelo seu ótimo piso de dança feito de madeira de lei, que tomava conta de quase todo o segundo andar. Em 1966, foi adquirido pelo professor e DJ local, Russ Gibb. Gibb estava sob a influência de uma visita feita ao Fillmore Theatre em San Francisco, queria um lugar parecido em Detroit para acomodar música psicodélica e estrutura para os adolescentes do local. Gibbs trabalhou próximo ao principal ativista contra-cultura John Sinclair promovendo shows de bandas como MC5, The Thyme e The Stooges, que se apresentavam semanalmente. Muitos outros artistas se apresentaram no Grande, incluindo Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd, The Grateful Dead, Jeff Beck, Cream e The Who. Além desses nomes conhecidos do Rock, também contou com apresentações de artistas de Jazz como John Coltrane e Sun Ra.Essa época psicodélica e contracultural do Grande Ballroom foi largamente documentada pela fotógrafa Leni Sinclair. Desde que Gibb fechou o local como sendo uma casa de rock em 1972, o prédio foi raramente utilizado e acabou ficando em um estado de ruínas. Em 2010 permaneceu inativo e foi aberto para reestruturação.

Superior Dome

La Superior Dome abrió sus puertas el 14 de septiembre de 1991 como la mayor cúpula de madera del mundo. Alberga un estadio en el campus de la Northern Michigan University en Marquette, Michigan. El equipo de fútbol americano Northern Michigan Wildcats juega aquí sus partidos como local, y también alberga todo tipo de acontecimientos tanto universitarios como de la comunidad. La cúpula alcanza una altura de 14 pisos y abarca en su interior una superficie de 21.000 m² (5,1 acres). Construida en forma de cúpula geodésica, tiene capacidad para 8.000 personas sentadas, y puede llegar a albergar hasta 16.000. Tiene un diámetro de 163,4 m y está construida pensando en el extremo e impredecible tiempo que azota la ciudad en invierno, debido a su localización en la costa sur del Lago Superior. La construcción se completó en dos fases. La fase I finalizó en agosto de 1991 y consistía en la construcción de la estructura. La fase II, completada en mayo de 1995, añadió vestuarios,oficinas, salas de reuniones y tiendas. La fase I fue costeada enteramente por el Estado de Míchigan, mientras que la fase II (apenas 2,1 millones de dólares) se costeó con donaciones privadas y préstamos. El terreno de juego está hecho de una superficie artificial retráctil, y debajo de ella una superficie de juego sintética que aloja tres canchas de baloncesto/voleibol, dos de tenis y una pista de atletismo de 200 metros. Se tarda 30 minutos en quitar por completo la alfombra de césped artificial, proceso monitoreado por ordenador. El primer partido fue contra Indianápolis, con victoria local 31-20.

Gregor S. and Elizabeth B. Affleck House

The Gregor S. and Elizabeth B. Affleck House, also known as the Affleck House, is a Frank Lloyd Wright designed Usonian home in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, in Metro Detroit. It is one of only about 25 pre-World War II Usonians to be built. It is owned by Lawrence Technological University. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 3, 1985. History Gregor S. Affleck was born in Chicago and became a chemical engineer. Affleck was familiar with Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural style, having spent much of his youth near Spring Green, Wisconsin, and Wright's family home. Gregor's wife Elizabeth was particularly fond of Wright's Fallingwater, so when the couple wanted to build their own house in 1940, they commissioned Wright to design this house. The site was a unique lot, densely wooded, with no level ground, which allowed Wright to explore and refine his design for a home on sloping ground. The construction was finished in 1941. The Afflecks later commissioned Wright to construct a second house on the adjoining lot, known as the Pergola House. In 1978, the Affleck House was donated by the family to Lawrence Technological University. The university committed to restoring and preserving the house, and it is used as a teaching resource for the university's College of Architecture and Design faculty and students. Description The Affleck House is a Usonian house constructed of brick and cypress. It is sited in a natural amphitheater on a sloping lot. The main entrance opens into an entry foyer, which is connected to a main skylit loggia. A light well in the floor of the loggia opens onto a stream below. The loggia extends into the living/dining space, which is cantilevered out over the small stream. The living room revolves around a large fireplace and is adjoined by the dining area. A small kitchen is a two-story space, with a small stairway leading downward to the lower level bedroom. The main bedroom wing is raised half a story above the loggia, with a hallway/gallery on one side and three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Affleck House

Affleck House ou Gregor et Elizabeth Affleck House est une villa de style moderne-usonia-organique-Prairie School, construite en 1941 par l'architecte américain Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959), à Bloomfield Hills dans la banlieue nord-ouest de Détroit dans le Michigan aux États-Unis. Elle est inscrite au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis 1985. Historique Gregor Affleck passe une grande partie de sa jeunesse près de la célèbre résidence-cabinet d'architecte Taliesin East de Spring Green, dans le Wisconsin de Frank Lloyd Wright. Grand amateur de sa célèbre Maison sur la cascade de Pennsylvanie, il fait appel à ce dernier, avec son épouse Elizabeth, pour se faire construire cette maison usonia en 1940, sur un terrain en pente boisé de 8 000 m2. La demeure multi-niveau de 210 m2 est construite en brique et panneaux sandwich de bois de cyprès, avec salon, salle à manger et cuisine en espace ouvert, 3 chambres, et nombreux meubles intégrés de Wright. Les Affleck ont ensuite demandé à Wright de leur concevoir un second projet de maison (jamais réalisé) sur le terrain voisin, sous le nom de Gregor Affleck House II (ou Pergola House). Les Affleck ont vécu dans cette demeure jusqu’à leur disparition, avant que les héritiers ne la cède en 1978 à la section architecture & design de l'Université technologique Lawrence, qui s'est engagée depuis à la restaurer d'origine, à la préserver, et à l'ouvrir occasionnellement à la visite public.
